There was a time that these snapping turtles were caught for their nigh-impenetrable shells which were used as shields by the ancient Gyr Abanian highland clans.

Warriors once hunted these snapping turtles to fashion shields from their shells, hence the descriptive name. Others, however, have long valued the creature for the invigorating properties of its flesh, either consumed directly or distilled into a potent tonic.
